Demi Moore Should Win the Oscar (But Not for the Reason You Think)

Demi Moore has a good chance to take home her very first Oscar for Best Actress this year for her work in The Substance, and she absolutely deserves it. It's a bold, unconventional, surprisingly thoughtful film that the Academy typically overlooks, anchored by one of the most exciting Hollywood comeback stories in years. However, it's that comeback story that has positioned Moore as the likely winner, more than the performance itself. Oscar campaigning has become its own unique art form over the past few decades, and there are few things more powerful than a good story to go along with a buzzy performance.
